America's two greatest threats are now joining forces to gain complete control over the global film industry. I hate to be the one to take Hollywood to defcon four (is that the highest it goes?) with this news, but Russia and China have com...

Game of Thrones ended in April. A whole lot of fans were none too pleased with its resolution (myself and our Chris Compendio included), but we all move on. Like adults. HBO is also moving on, with filming underway on the pilot episode of t...
Aiming to be the next big fantasy series, in a Game of Thronesless world, Amazon's adaptation of Tolkien's high fantasy epic has found some talent to sustain its ambitious scope.
The video game adaptations continue to heat up, as Netflix's The Witcher is starting to materialize into the monster-hunting romp it hopes to be. Straight from the gryphon's mouth, we have several new images and a poster for the upcoming fa...
This year's Hellboy reboot was not a resounding success. It was reportedly a conflict of interests behind the scenes, it did poorly at the box office, and even this rabid fan of the comics and del Toro films thought the movie was just a was...
The upcoming English-language Hello Kitty movie is a ploy for Saniro to take over the world. I truly believe this and I don’t just mean dominating the product market: I’m talking about building an all-out Kitty empire. Do you ...

From the producers of Bojack Horseman, Amazon is bringing us this rotoscoped trip-fest that's giving me some very good A Scanner Darkly vibes. Rotoscoping is a trend that never really took off like it should have. The colors, the surreal n...
It was bound to happen, but Pixar seems to be receiving more criticism as of late. Notwithstanding the very necessary changes at the top, there's been mounting concerns about the amount of sequels (albeit not always direct ones) being made...
Anyone who saw The Dark Tower made a poor choice in seeing a movie. If you were a fan of Stephen King's book series you were nothing but let down and if you weren't then you just saw a rushed, uninteresting film that made little sense....
Whereas the original Dark Crystal is a staple of many childhoods, for me it was perhaps a bit before my time. I only saw it within the past few years, and was of course impressed by the staple Henson wonder and production, but my adoration...
We've all been waiting for it. One of the best aspects of the His Dark Materials trilogy, which is cram full of great aspects, is the armored polar bears. However, the teasers and trailers for the new series had pretty much avoided sho...
Here we are, at the precipice of the season 8 premiere and the first new episode of Game of Thrones since August 27, 201 and the fervor is at an all-time high. Unlike some television series, GOT’s ratings have continued...
Adaptation is a tough thing to nail. You can jump from one medium to another of course, but it feels like making the leap to the movies is the final destination for a lot of original works. You don’t hear of many video games or comic ...
The movie in your head is sometimes better than the actual movie. Think of the hype engendered by seeing good trailers and clips, or reading teases of the plot and descriptions of big scenes. The imagination fills in the gaps so well that t...
Netflix keeps pumping out the anime, and now they've ordered eight episodes of an original project set in the fertile world of Greek mythology. The series, titled Gods & Heroes, will follow one of Zeus' illegitimate sons as he realizes ...
If one thing's going to strike you straight off the bat with Starfish, it's going to be that this movie is perhaps too hip for its own good. You got cassettes, rotary phones, plaid shirts, old movie theater tickets, tea, Victorian-era furni...
Sometimes a truly weird Nicolas Cage film can slide between the cracks, slip beneath the floorboards, never to be discovered. This is a pitiful shame that needs to be avoided at all costs. Between Worlds recently released on DVD and has bee...
If you play Dungeons and Dragons or any sort of tabletop roleplaying game, you’ve probably heard of Critical Role. The weekly web series involves a bunch of nerdy-ass voice actors who get together and play a homebrew D&D campaign....
The His Dark Materials books are some of the best young adult novels out there, with an incredibly original premise, and deeper-then-you-think religious allegory, and a powerful and moving plotline. Yet, as every other YA book series ...
My favorite animal as a child was a wolf, because I was a little boy, and wolves are objectively the coolest thing a little boy could like. As an adult I still find them very rad, and films featuring wolves (or weird deer) tick up about ei...
Oh boy, Game of Thrones fans you better make sure you took a bathroom break before settling in for the new season. Peter Dinklage just released the actual run times of each episode for Season 8, and man they are long. He described that each...
Mark Millar's Millarworld comics are about to hit Netflix in a big way over the coming years as the streaming company tries to replace its Marvel content with something else now that Disney is taking it. They scooped up Millarworld in Augus...
I don't know anyone who is turbo excited about The Kid Who Would Be King, but I'm getting a fun vibe from it that a lot of movies lack these days. The kind of kids movie that is just enjoyable to watch and leaves you feeling happy. Somethi...
Despite it being early in production, Netflix is quite happy with what they've seen of their upcoming television adaptation of The Witcher series of novels and video games. So happy, in fact, that they're ready to greenlight future seasons ...
Robert Zemeckis is a storied director with a wonderful reputation for enjoyable and uplifting movies that also contain in them a deeper more personal tale of overcoming adversity. Forest Gump is one of my favorite movies because of its fant...
When Netflix and Jim Henson Studios announced they were making 10-episode a prequel to The Dark Crystal I was hyped. When they said they'd be doing it with traditional puppet techniques I was extra hyped. When they noted...
In our modern era of movie trailer editing, it’s pretty common to know exactly what a movie is about, how it will begin, and how it will end all within the couple minutes of footage the studio chooses to show. As if in mortal ter...
There seems to be some questionable rumo(u)rs floating around from some U.K. tabloids that Doctor Who star Jodie Whittaker and showrunner Chris Chibnall won't be sticking around the TARDIS for that long. While Chibnall's status isn't set in...
Perhaps it will never reach the popularity of say, Friends, but The Good Place is an excellent and unique sitcom in its own right. Luckily for fans of the Michael Schur-created show, the light-hearted, philosophy and ethics-driven comedy wi...
If for whatever reason you've been following the production of the Monster Hunter movie, there is plenty to be worried about. The Resident Evil film husband-and-wife team of leading actress Milla Jovovich and writer...
Thanks to being in the realm of public domain, the Robin Hood story has quite the storied history in movies. Robin Hood was the first WB film to use technicolour. It got the Disney treatment. Russell Crowe, doing as he always does, worked h...
Like the White Walker army approaching Westeros, the final season of Game of Thrones is shambling towards its premiere after taking 2018 off. Through a new-ish video (with no new footage), HBO revealed that season 8 will begin sometime in ...
Finally, news I have been waiting for a very long time to hear and its all thanks to Instagram. According to an Instagram post from Castlevania's Producer, Adi Shankar, he is in talks to bring another iconic Japanese video game franchise to...
Hey, remember that Boba Fett movie that was apparently in the works by Logan director James Mangold? It's okay if you haven't because it doesn't sound like it's happening anymore. According to Deadline, Lucasfilm preside...
Joel Cornish, the wonderful human who brought us Attack the Block, is back to his antics of young people saving the world, and it looks pretty wonderful. It's the kind of film I would normally roll my eyes at as a quick cash grab off ...
"Why did you call me madam?" asked Jodie Whittaker's Doctor in the middle of her first big scene of premiere episode "The Woman Who Fell to Earth." "Because you're a woman," replied Yasmin (Mandip Gill). The Doctor responds with brief surpr...
